ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener To Check That Function Complete?
Mar 3, 2010I am trying to create an event listener to check that a function has completed before the next action is run. In simple terms I have a module that is opened and closed via two functions... module_open() and module_close().Each function has tween elements that must complete before the next element is processed... i.e the next function, etc.This is the code I have ( have attempted to create an event listener but I seem doing something wrong. I am not even sure that it is possible to create an event listener that checks for a function finishing before calling the next function.
Code:
function onAbout(event:Event):void {

Dec 13, 2010i'm trying to check if a movieclip has an event listener with a sepecific function bound to it. The hasEventListener function only accepts one parameter (the listener). What i would need would be an hasEventListener that accepts a second parameter, namely the function that is bound to it.
Code:
if (!mc.hasEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER) {
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler);
}
but what i would need is:
Code:
if (!mc.hasEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler) {
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler);
}
because i bind more than one ROLL_OVER listeners to that mc.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener - When The Mouse Rollsover The Movieclip To Go To Frame 3 Of The Movieclip
Mar 4, 2009i've not tried to do anything odd with eventListeners up until now. i have a movieclip with multiple frames that i use AS to attach a textfield to it. problem is i have a eventlistener for when the mouse rollsover the movieclip to go to frame 3 of the movieclip.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener Only On MovieClip?
Aug 3, 2010I've an array of movieclips created via code that have some textfields. Then i have added some listeners to the movieclips.
Here the code:
Code:
arrNot[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, titoloOver);
private function titoloOver(e:MouseEvent){
var nome:String = e.target.name;
TweenMax.to(curs,1 ,{y:contMain.getChildByName(nome).y + 23});
}
This code moves a cursor calculating the y coordinate depending the moviclip that is mouse overed. Now the movieclips have some textfields so when i mouseover the movieclips all works ok but when i mouseover the textfield i receive a #1009 error.

Dec 15, 2009I have a project with 15 dynamically created MovieClips on. The clips are images loaded from XML.As each one is loaded I assign an id to it. screen.id = [i];Now normally I would add an event listener to trigger each of these to "Do Something" but I want it to be an automatic process.

Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Event Listener For When A Movieclip Is Stopped
Oct 24, 2011I'm thinking of making a movieclip which stops itself at certain points (just with stop(); at certain keyframes in the movieclip timeline), then the user is prompted to continue the clip.
What is the best why to listen for the stopping of the movieclip? I think I want an event listener that detects when the movieclip is stopped, but I don't know if there is one.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener For When A Movieclip Is Finished Playing?
Jan 31, 2010I have a slideshow that loads an image via XML, then adds said image to a placeholder inside a movie clip, and then proceeds to play a little sliding animation via the movie clip. What I need to do is figure out how to get an event that the movie clip is finished and sitting back on frame 1 so that I can run a "nextImage" function that loads the next image from the XML. I'm pretty new to actionscript, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to properly handle what should be a simple event. If I put a simple listener at the end of the movieclip, it doesn't talk to the main script at all?

View 0 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Scaling Down A Movieclip On MOUSE_DOWN Calls A Registered ROLL_OUT Event Listener?
Apr 12, 2010I'd like to simply scale down a movieclip (that I'm treating as a button) when the user presses their mouse button. When users release the mouse button, I want my button to scale back to it's normal (.scaleX = .scaleY = 1) size. My button also has listereners for a ROLL_OUT event to turn off (.alpha = 0) a highlight movieclip that rests atop movieclips showing the different states the button can be in.
When I roll over the button, the higlight comes, but there is an annoying flicker problem. For some odd reason, when I press the mouse button the ROLL_OUT event handler function is called, yet I didn't scale the movie down enough for the cursor to be off of the actual button itself. I do not want that flicker. I'm not sure why ROLL_OUT is being called even though the event is clearly a mouse down, and within the mouse down event handler I am scaling the button movie clip, but not enough to remove out from under the cursor. In other words, if I click the button at its registration point, a flicker appears.
Here's my code.
//this add all the appropriate listeners to the button private function addMouseListeners() { this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOver); this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDown); this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, rollOut); this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUp); }
[code]....
why my rollOut function is being called when the mouse button is pressed, and called once more when the mouse button is released.
Actionscript 3 :: Check If A Movieclip Exists On A Specific Location Relative To Event.currentTarget?
Sep 22, 2011How can I check if the stage contains a movieclip on a specific x and y location on the stage?I'm building a colour-guessing game. The purpose is to walk a path through a generated field of hexagons, each assigned a random colour (yellow, red, blue or green), based on what soundfile you hear. So if you hear "yellow", you have to click a yellow tile etc.But because I want it to be a path, and the colours of the tiles are randomly generated, I have to check which colours border the currently active tile. I literally have no idea how to do this. I thought this might work but it doesnt:
if ((this.tile.y == (event.currentTarget.y - 64)) != null) {
//add the colour of this tile to array
}

ActionScript :: Javascript - Event Listener To Listen "all The Time" Not Just Wait For Any Particular Instance (mouse Click - Keyboard Event) Of Event?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Proper Listener On Tween Event Inside Mouse Event
Feb 23, 2011My stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.

Actionscript 3 :: Use The Same Event-listener Callback For Multiple Event Types?
Nov 18, 2011This might be more of a subjective question, but is it generally best practice to have one dedicated method per event-types that you add an event-listener?
Such as:
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOver);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onMouseOut);
//Somewhere else in the code...
[Code].....
And if you had a MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and other relevant MouseEvents event-listeners to watch for, you could even set a switch statement to handle all the various MouseEvent types.
